  • Name Mary SPURRELL 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Abt 1776  Sheepstor, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • Mary was "of Sampford Spiney" when she married William.  
      There seems to have been a Spurrell family (parents Samuel and Patty) in Sheepstor with a Mary bapt at an appropriate time to be this one but the name was quite a common one  locally.
      Since I have found a Samuel and a Patty buried in Sampford Spiney it seems that the family had moved at some point from Sheepstor, so I am happy to accept that Mary was almost certainly their daughter.
    Baptised Mar 1776  St. Leonard’s Church, Sheepstor, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 22 Aug 2012):
      Under heading "Baptisms 1776" - part of page with 1st part of entry missing, rest reads "Samuel & Patty Spurrel was baptd. March [rest of date unreadable]"
      Others have this as Mary - I need to see BTS.

    • Samuel Spurrill otp and Patty Reed of the parish of Sheepstor, no additional info. (from Banns / marriages register, image on FMP, viewed 18 Aug 2012)
    Banns of marriage 8 Mar 1772, 29 Mar 1772, 19 Apr 1772  St. Leonard’s Church, Sheepstor, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • PR with combined banns / marriage entry - shows banns unusually (in my experience) being read at 3 weekly intervals - because in this tiny place, which was not then a parish in its own right, there was only a service every 3 weeks.
      No info. given as to marital status etc.

    Married 22 Apr 1772  St. Leonard’s Church, Sheepstor, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • The marriage part of the combined banns / marriage entry shows that Samuel and Patty both made their marks, while Alice Reed and Peter Reed Junr. (both appear to be siblings of Patty's) signed. It would seem strange if they could write and Patty couldn't - but Samuel seems to have signed plenty of documents in Sheepstor, so I guess both could write but didn't on this occasion.
